It depends on what music she'll be listening too! and at her age u should take care of what she watching! I love music and I listen to it but other people say its haram so u won't really know who to trust even some Imams say its haram and some say its ok, its a big debate my friend!!!! May Allah guide u and your sister to the right thing amen:)

Answer 7

MUSIC IS NOT HARAM as long as it contains halal stuff and no haram stuff such as pre-maritial s*x, drugs, violence, alcohol, no being straight, racist comments, etc. Like rap has s*x and drugs and stuff in it, and heavy metal has stuff about the devil-obviously these two music types are haram. But, you should always listen to nasheeds every now and then.

Read these sites: This PROVES that music is indeed halal with certain conditions.

Answer 14

look , listening to music is haram for all ages and you have to teach  her not to listen to music at an early age ..

Answer 15

Majority of the Muslim scholars say Music is haraam.  Majority of the Muslims listens to Music though.  Some people say it is okay, and without giving proof they say, I listen to it.  But see, just because I or you listen to Muslic doesnt make a haraam into halaal.  Also the age doesn't make a haraam into halaal.

So you have to search for rulings of why the ones who say it is halaal, and why the ones who say it is haraam.  What are their proofs? Which proof is stronger?

And then you have to pick the path that is most correct according to Islaam from your understanding through the research.

Ibn Al Qayyim on music

“From among the artful machinations and entrapments of Allah’s enemy [Satan], with which he has snared those possessing little good sense, knowledge and deen [faith], and by which he has stalked the hearts of the false and ignorant people, there is the listening to whistling, wailing, handclapping and song to the accompaniment of forbidden [musical] instruments. Such things block the Quraan from people’s hearts and make them devoted to sin and disobedience. For song (to musical accompaniment) is the Quraan of Ash Shaytaan (Satan). It is a dense veil and barrier, preventing nearness to Ar-Rahmaan! (Allah) By way of such song, Satan deceives vain souls, making it appear pleasing to them through his cunning appeal to their vanities. He insidiously whispers false, specious arguments suggesting the’ goodness’ in song. These arguments are accepted, and as a result, the Quraan becomes an object of neglect and abandonment.”

Ibn Al Qayyim
